Jericho was a junior at Wilbur cross high school, who was loved by his community, teachers and friends. Jericho excelled in sports since age 5. He was a kind, compassionate, outgoing jokester with an infectious smile and he truly made this world a better place. He has touched many lives young and old well beyond the Fair Haven area and his spirit will live in our hearts forever. His legacy shines through the hearts of those he touched; he was a true friend to so many people. Words cannot express our pain and sadness. Although Jericho is gone he will never be forgotten as his laughter and joy will continue to bring smiles to our faces. Jericho loved life and people, and people loved Jericho. He will always be the missing piece to our puzzle. We will miss him for eternity. Until we meet again baby boy, forever in our hearts.
